MR Crescent City, LLC v. TJ Biscayne Holdings LLC

Opinion

Affirmed in part, dismissed in part by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Stuart C. Neil Fisher appeals the district court’s order affirming the bankruptcy court’s order finding Fisher and several of his codefendants in the bankruptcy suit jointly and severally responsible for $181,221.73 in costs and attorneys’ fees, which it awarded to the parties who opposed the attempt by Fisher and his code-fendants to remove a Maryland state court action to the bankruptcy court.

We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court as it pertains to Fisher. See TJ Biscayne Holdings, LLC v. MR Crescent City, LLC, No. 1:11-cv-01039-MJG (D.Md. Mar. 2, 2012). Because Fisher’s fellow appellants TJ Biscayne Holdings LLC and Market Street Properties Palm Beach, LLC are not represented by an attorney in this court, we dismiss their appeals of the district court’s order. See Rowland v. California Men’s Colony, 506 U.S. 194, 201-02, 113 S.Ct. 716, 121 L.Ed.2d 656 (1993) (“It has been the law for the better part of two centuries ... that a corporation may appear in the federal courts only through licensed counsel.”); United States v. Hagerman, 545 F.3d 579, 581-82 (7th Cir. 2008) (LLCs, like corporations, are not permitted to proceed pro se).

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

*199 AFFIRMED IN PART; DISMISSED IN PART.
